Only thing I kept screaming in my head on your turns was "DOWNSHIFT!". Poor bike sounded like it was going to stall out in every corner. Awesome footage though, now lets see some footage on the KLX.

Fairly certain he wasn't looking for any riding tips. Where's your video?

Can't really justify a helmet cam, otherwise I'd post a bunch of stuff. Then I would happily let everyone critique my riding!

I got no problem with it, I'm not out to impress anyone. I'm just out having fun.

I do wish more people would post up helmet cams, though. I thoroughly enjoy some good helmet cam footage.

Can you show us what you are using for camera set up? Maybe I could put something together relatively cheap. I see the prices of HD handhelds coming down, but the helmet cams themselves (at least the good ones) are pretty pricy.

I'm using a VIO POV.1 http://www.vio-pov.com/

Probably the most economical one is the Go Pro Hero wide:

Kind of lacks in audio quality, though, and the wide angle is really wide, lots of distortion in the final result. But other than that, it looks decent for that price.

Hmm...$200 isn't too bad...the sample vids look pretty cool. The frame rate isn't very good, but I kinda like the grainy look.
